Still think Tanks need a buff, still think Voids should lose their extended leash range, still think Tempests should cost more supply. and thats the problem with oppinions, like all you want is "buff terran nerf protoss" and they wiont react to 1 sided ideas, because right now, terrans seems to do pretty fine so buff them nerf p cant be the answer if you want change then give p something and take t something in order to make the changes you want too | ||

This patch is crappy hopefully sky toss nerf soon. | ||

Now you get the upgrade, scout the opponent and voila, you know if you are gonna build range units, melee units or spellcasters. You know if you are gonna have to drone hard, or if you need faster units. You know what upgrades you are gonna go before hand. I like this change. Tho! Lair+overseer takes 17seconds more than upgrading the overlord speed. Is this enough? -------- The hellbat unit is amazing imo. Hellbat drops make the game....dynamic...i think i have that word correct, maybe not but i will then say it becomes way more intersting. A hellbat drop can occur anytime in your base, so you need to be prepared. With this kind of stuff, makes the game just way more interesting. | ||

Hatchery -The Pneumatized Carapace upgrade now only requires a Hatchery. why? what is the reasoning for this? I don't get it. Seems like early zerg attacks will be tougher to defend against. Maybe tanks are getting a buff and this is in preperation for that? spore -The weapon damage for Acid Spew has been increased from 15 to 15 + 15 vs. Biological. This seems to counter mass muta style, but it won't because a huge pack of muta's are gonna own that spore in a single shot. Widow Mine -The primary target damage for Sentinel Missiles has been increased from 125 to 125 +35 vs. Shields. This will help against protoss all in stuff, but I still think oracle's, at the speed they come out at, are so devestating to worker lines. I personally don't like the window mine as a unit....  may have to switch races lol.Also I swear that David Kim said they were gonna watch pro matches of HOTS, and after watching the MLG winter qualifers I really think hellbats need to be adjusted lol, and skytoss | ||

This is a beta. David said they're going to test different buffs/nerfs to see which builds/playstyles become OP and react accordingly. They have plenty of time to make more changes, this isn't the end of the world. | ||

This makes no sense. I am not lower league so if you are implying anyone not GM is incapable of playing then that is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. well then i still wonder why you have problems ... when i go skytoss the zergs know how to deal with it, look gm more and more zergs in top, try mass queen mass swarmhost openings, then air sucks as hell xD there are alot of ways zerg can deal with it ofc not let p have 5 bases and ignore they mass up, its same like p wasnt allowed to do it in wol because even if p had 10k 10k if zerg was maxed on broodlord infestor only there was no way to win anymore whatever the minerals says, so now zerg have to play more intelligent not just bunker and wait until tomorrow, but still the mass swarmhost mass queen in mass corrupter seems to fuck it like hell[/QUOTE] I know that was the case in WOL but that should be balanced in HOTS not match up should revolve around "I have to win before he gets 5 bases" it should be "It will be easier to win if i can prevent him from expanding but if I cant I can do x or y and still win." | ||

Most people said things like "Spores wont be enough Hydras should be buffed too" or "Hellbats need to be nerfed"... But of the people who actually responded to the proposed changes weren't saying "No, don't do them". That's what happens when people bring their own complaints in, instead of responding to what was proposed. Pretty much. The feedback they got was either nonconstructive or it was "Well, I don't think that X will be enough." In the case of the latter, that pretty much means "Go ahead and test it and we'll see." So lets test it and see what happens. I'm not really expecting any huge changes. I'd like to see Oracles adjusted somehow, but shit if I know how without breaking them completely. | ||

(not to mention from alot p the main op seems to be pvt where alot of protos have a 70-80+ winratio, but it doesnt matter if white-ra or just a rnd gamer like me on masters, the pvz winratio seems to be like 30-50% so not the right time to nerf it ...) | ||
